"I'm delighted to announce that Simon and I are expecting our first child together. I wanted you to hear the news direct from me, obviously we're over the moon and very excited but please respect our privacy at this precious time. Yours always, Adele xx," she wrote to her fans.

The Grammy winner began dating divorced dad Konecki earlier this year. The British chart topper sparked engagement rumors in February when she was spotted wearing a yellow diamond on her engagement finger at the BRIT awards, but shot down the speculation on her Twitter in May.

Congrats to the happy couple!
